You will get to see how hip-hop and street hip-hop matures,” (via Complex).He continued: “It’s been 15 years since we dropped an album….I just think that people are going to witness greatness.

Drake has reignited his feud with Pusha T and also taken aim at Pharrell on his new Travis Scott collaboration ‘Meltdown’.The two rappers have long taken shots at each other in their songs but their beef came to a head in 2018 when, on ‘Infrared’, Pusha-T referenced the claims that Drake used a ghostwriter called Quentin Miller. The rappers then began a short back-and-forth of diss tracks.Now, on a track from Scott’s new album ‘Utopia’ – which landed yesterday (July 28) – Drake hits out at Push again, also bringing Pharrell into the frame.He raps: “I melt down the chains that I bought from yo boss / Give a fuck about all of that heritage shit / Since V not around, the members done hung up the Louis / They not even wearing that shit.”Listen to the track below.Elsewhere on ‘Meltdown’, Travis Scott fans have been speculating that the rapper has dissed actor Timothée Chalamet on the song.At the end of the song’s second verse, La Flame makes reference to Willy Wonka, a character Chalamet portrays in the upcoming film Wonka.“Wrappin’ the cheese, wrap around me ’cause I’ve got property (Wrap, cheese, wrap) / Chocolate AP and chocolate the Vs (Vs), got the Willy Wonka factory (Vs) / Burn an athlete like it’s calories, find another flame hot as me, bitch,” he raps.Fans believe the rapper dissed the actor due to Chalamet being reality TV star Kylie Jenner’s rumoured boyfriend.

Created by over 400 active wildfires taking place in Canada, vast stretches of smoke have spread across several states in the northeastern part of the country — with the air quality in New York described as “very unhealthy” by Mayor Eric Adams (via New York Times).As of yesterday (June 7), CBS reported that the haze conditions meant that the city had some of the worst pollution in the world, and residents were urged to limit their exposure to the outdoor air until the situation passes.Despite the conditions, organisers of Governors Ball have confirmed that the three-day festival is expected to go ahead as planned.“We’re closely monitoring the air quality with weather experts and are in close contact with city officials,” a statement from the festival read, shared on Twitter.

There are some creative decisions that arrive like a bolt from the blue, a moment of divine inspiration from leftfield, and there are others where not doing that thing would simply be an act of negligence. If you're directing a film called Cocaine Bear it would be a crime to not at least put in a call to Pusha T.

Pusha T has shared a new remix of of Melle Mel’s anti-drug classic ‘White Lines’ for the new Cocaine Bear movie.The new rework of the 1983 hit is among a host of tracks by different artists which feature in the horror-comedy, which was released in cinemas today (February 24). You can listen to it and view a trailer featuring Pusha T’s remix below.Other songs which appear on the soundtrack include Jefferson Starship’s 1979 hit ‘Jane’ and ‘Too Hot Ta Trot’ by the Commodores.

Bear hits cinemas today (February 24) – and is expected to scare up a storm at the box office.Based on the 1985 story about an American Black Bear that ingested a duffle bag’s worth of coke, Cocaine Bear doesn’t stick to the facts. Instead of being found dead by police shortly after its drug binge, the furry beast goes on a murderous rampage, attacking anyone who gets in its way.

Pusha T has now dropped a second song aimed at the fast food chain.Back in March, the rapper shared ‘Spicy Fish Diss Track‘ in collaboration with Arby’s – where Pusha took aim at the chain’s Filet-o-Fish burger.The new track, titled ‘Rib Roast’, sees Pusha T reconnect with American sandwich chain Arby’s to diss their rivals McDonald’s, by questioning the quality of their food and McRibs.“McDonald’s what you selling? Mystery meat?/ Pop up and go away, what does history teach?” Pusha raps on the new track. “Mickey D’s McRib, you ain’t it in the streets.”The track has been accompanied by an official music video, as well as limited-edition merchandise to honour Arby’s’ menu’s country roots including a custom Pusha T t-shirt and jacket, a sandwich bolo tie, a trucker hat and a bandana.“We are on a mission to call out weak sandwiches of questionable quality, and there is no other product that can compare to our REAL Country-Style Rib Sandwich or is worthy of Pusha T’s praise,” Jim Taylor, President of Arby’s, said in a statement.

Two McDonald’s sandwiches have now joined Drake among the legions of those absolutely ethered by Pusha T diss tracks. “Rib Roast,” a takedown of the beloved McRib sandwich that returns to the golden arches each fall, follows March’s “Spicy Fish Diss Track,” a screed against the Micky D’s Filet-O-Fish.

Pusha T has responded after receiving a somewhat unlikely shoutout from the Ukraine Ministry of Defence, who recently quoted the rapper on social media.Yesterday (September 7), Defense of Ukraine shared an update on combat losses – including “eliminated personnel”, vehicles and artillery – reportedly suffered by Russia since Vladimir Putin’s invasion of Ukraine began in February.Defense of Ukraine captioned the post, “I put numbers on the board“, a lyric from Push’s 2013 track ‘Numbers on the Boards’ from his debut solo album ‘My Name Is Name’. Push himself retweeted the post, adding, “Great taste in music for the win.” See the interaction below:Great taste in music for the win… https://t.co/GKG2V6Jc4S— King Push (@PUSHA_T) September 7, 2022Ukraine’s Ministry of Defense regularly includes song lyrics, lines from films and other references when sharing updates on enemy combat losses on social media.
